Over the past two pandemic-hit years, the resilience and mettle of Singapore’s land transport system has been tested and proven. While Covid-19 posed unprecedented challenges to Singapore’s public transport industry and SMRT, a One Team spirit with strong partnerships between the Government, regulator and public transport operators have ensured that we emerged stronger. SMRT remained steadfast in our commitment to deliver a safe, reliable, and commuter-centred public transport service despite Covid-19 restrictions. Through a mature risk management system put in place and led by Ti Pin, SMRT has been able to navigate the rough waters, harnessed opportunities from risks, and emerged stronger.
